Arthopods (Phylum Arthropoda) are perhaps the most successful group of multicellular animals and include insects, spiders and scorpions, centipedes and millipedes, lobsters, crabs, crayfish, ostracodes and barnacles, and trilobites. Arthropods are characterized by jointed legs, a body divided into segments, and a hard external covering (exoskeleton), that is periodically shed to accommodate the growth of the organism. They are an ancient group, dating to the late Precambrian and all of the above groups are known from the fossil record.
